In a central avenue of the capital, in the same place where over a year ago, as standard bearer of the Seed Movement, Arevalo announced his plan, the president said that they came to office knowing there were many challenges ahead to face.

Arevalo stated he was certain that these, “that perverse minority, fattened their pockets and tried to perpetuate a system that rewarded their immorality at the expense of health, education and development of the people of Guatemala.”
